Success Stories

“I love my job at Loewen because I enjoy doing what I do. I work well by myself, but taking the metal carts out to the line I still get to enjoy the people working on the lines. I love the fact that Loewen is a Christian based company and I get treated fairly and with respect.”
– Ann Wollmann (Awning & Casement – Evening Shift)

“I love my job at Loewen because of the fact that Loewen sees us all as individuals, encouraging everyone to reach their full potential, seek out career goals, apply for training opportunities and help to finance our dreams. I love the open door policy to discuss ideas and concerns for improvement and the encouragement to participate in committees that interest us. But mostly I love the fact that the CEO, VPs, Production & Plant Managers, Human Resource Personnel, Supervisors, Team Leaders, Maintenance, Quality Control and Plant Workers all take the time to relate to one another and offer a hello and a smile of support. It’s a common thread that binds us all together. It’s part of the commitment and respect that shows in the quality and design of our windows and doors. It’s pride.“
–Nancy Nickle (Food Services – Evening Shift)

“I love my job at Loewen because Loewen offers many opportunities to advance and develop one’s skills. They ‘spoil’ their employees with picnics, Christmas banquets, gifts, awards, chances to win cash and prizes – just to name a few. Loewen cares for employees’ families as well by organizing monthly social activities and a separate Christmas party for the children. Mostly, it’s great to be surrounded by positive people who make working at Loewen enjoyable.“
– Marilyn Friesen (Food Services – Day Shift)

“I love my job at Loewen because I am treated very well here. I have the right to make choices and have opportunity to grow as the company grows. Whether I am a person who prefers to work in the same department for 15 years, or someone who seeks to continuously grow and learn new things within the company, I can rely on Loewen to provide the tools and support I need to get there. In the three years that I have worked here I have learned so much and gained confidence in my abilities. I have taken some of the many courses the company offers and have sought advice from my superiors. This has not only improved the work I do at Loewen but has boosted my confidence in my personal life as well. I love my job because my employer recognizes the value in building people before building windows.“
– Mary Reddecopp (Wood Component Inventory – Day Shift)

“I love my job at Loewen because… Loewen loves me!! The atmosphere here is so positive. I have never worked in a company that had so many long-term, happy employees. To me, being that I have only been an employee here for three months, long-term employees are a good sign! Loewen seems to take such pride in their name and in return it shows and makes the people who work here want to take pride in their work as well. The end result… a great quality product and great quality employees. Loewen does an incredible amount of great things for the employees to show their appreciation and I respect that. These are the reasons I love my job here at Loewen and I am very proud to be a part of the Loewen team!!“
- Melanie Lamoureux (Wood Patio – Day Shift)

“I love my job at Loewen because I am able to work a full week’s work in only three days. It feels like I’m working part time and yet I still get a full pay cheque. I have been given the opportunity to work at two different positions on the weekend shift. Working in the Bistro I notice how positive most of the employees are. This makes Loewen a great place to work. There is always someone around willing to listen. We are all treated fairly and with respect.“
– Fran Thiessen (Human Resources and Food Services – Weekend Shift)
